Prince Orion was the most trusted adviser Of
the car. Nicholas 1. He owed his accession to
favor to blow OF his fist While he was aid-de-
camp, one OF the regiments had mutinied and the
car, feeling that look would reduce the men to
obedience, stepped In front OF them, accompanied
only by Orion, and asked: "Have you any COM
say TO me, step forward"
To his great surprise several soldiers did ad-
vance, and one OF them leveled his weapon at the
emperor: Orion instantly stepped forward and
The emperor was grateful, and Orion rose, step

Orion, and received him in the utmost iil-temper.

"Quite right; only don't know what good 1t is.

HOnitOn Lace.

THE ART OF MAKING THE ONCE FAMOUS FABRIC
PRESERVED ONLY IN A SMALL ENGLISH VILLAGE.
London Letter to Augusta tGa.) Chronicle.
Lyme Regis and Beer, small fishing village
few miles west, in South Deyonshire, are the
centers for all there is left Of the Honton lace in
dustry, which has totally disappeared from Honi-
ton. This exquisite fabric, once so greatly in
vogue, was gradually killed by the introduction
OF Brussels and vaIeneiennes lace. When Queen
victoria, from patriotic motives desired to have
her wedding dress OF Engl1sh-made lace, it was
with the greatest difrculty that sufficient lace
makers could be brought together for the purpose.
Many OF them were women who had given up the
occupation for years. This particular gown was
OF most elaborate design, figures, or sprgs.

From the Boston Transcript
The Listener" hears from Vermont that the
temperance instruction in the schools Is making
rather poor Roadway there. The rustic young
idea does not readily Seize upon the physiological
facts and assumptions which it is occasionally re-
qutred to master In advance OF its capacity to
comprehend them The Rural Termonter, of
Montpelier, has some answers to questions from
examination papers in this branch.
In reply to the question: "What Is the brain?n
one Vermont youngster procured this answer:
The Is all the time slnang inches on the nevers
ana is the OF you body thinks"
Who could possibly interpret this? The teacher
was nOnplussed at first, but managed at length to
get very coherent reply out or 1t, thus-II is all
the time sending messages over the nerves and is
the part OF your body that Thinks
Another answer to the same question was this:
work TO do OF anything. The nerves are small
white cords which run all over you il you had no
nerves you could not have the tOothache or burn
you but you could not feel your mothers warm
hand
The gem Of the collection, however, is an evil
dence OF the effect produced On the mind OF the
rising Vermont generation by the questions re-
garding the distiIlation OF alcohol This process
seemed 10 be very easily grasped by the children
on the whole, and this answer Is given as an ex-
ample OF the average work of large class:
"Alcohol is made by dist1llation. Tue following
IS an experiment: FIJI teapot with a fermented
nauld ana place In Its spout piece of rubber tub
Ing about feet long, and put the other end of the
rubber In the neck OF bottle which stands on ice
OF 1r IN water: Place lamp under the teapot and
all the alcohol in IT. will have passed as vapor into
the tubing and dropped as water into the bottle
because OF the GOODNESS OF the ice or water On
much larger scale regular distilleres are carried
on"
At this point Of the lesson bright little girl
got up and asked plaintively, "Why don't we all
make our own alcohol" 1t was evident that the
precise object OF all this instruction about intoxt
Giants was quite lost upon this pupil. The young
FermOnters are, OF course, at home on the subject
OF Cider and one OF them compressed great deal
OF information, including some that was possibly
likely TO get his parent or guardian into trouble,
into this answer: Ctder is made out OF apples and
stod until 1t sours, then they sell It,"

Lovely Woman at the Bank.

gentle, lovely woman entered Main street

''But my names on it already"

"Oh, well, gi' me it." She took It and carefully

From the New York Commercial.
An interesting bit OF news Is published to the
effect that the Fifth Avenue Stage Company is
having built number OF omnibuses on London
models with accommodation for eighteen passen-
gers on the roof II this be true New Workers are
to be congratulated for the best seat In a bus Is
outside and on top, and it is strange that Ameri-
cans have BEEN so slow in catching on" to such
an obvious improvement as Is now contemplated.
The two great obstacles, OF course to the intro
ductiOn OF outside seats are our rough pavementS
and extreme climate. 1t is difficult for q team of
horses to drag stage holding even one layer OF
humanity over our roadways. And an outside
passenger, in either our typical summer or winter
weather; would be anything but pleasurable or
safe. For these reasons, we have not doubled up"
In our street cOnveyanceS But as the new pave
ment in Filth avenue is comparatively smooth,
and as the patrons Of the line show a desire to
brave the climate, the company does well to adopt
the system OF outside seats.
II this experiment succeeds 1t is likely that h,l-
manfty viii be packed two layers deep on many

there Is no good reason why the same system
should not be followed here In Paris even the
suburban steam railroads run dOuble.decked cars.
Possibly like device might relieve the pressure
on the facilities OF the elevated system. Such
development would have q scientific value in eX-
tending our knowledge OF mankind. We are al
ready pretty familiar with second-story life and
by seats on the roof OF the elevated we could ex.
tend our observations to life on the third floor.
